Nestled within a tranquil neighborhood close to Downtown Chico, this house radiates the unmistakable charm of a garden lover's paradise. The front yard is a picturesque sight to behold, with stone walkways leading through meticulously manicured landscaping and surrounded by a charming picket fence. The interior exudes a harmonious blend of classic and contemporary design elements. Original hardwood floors grace the living spaces and natural light filters in through an abundance of windows, creating an inviting atmosphere that's airy. The heart of the home reveals a delightful surprise – a cute dining nook nestled alongside the kitchen, where sunlight streams through the windows. The kitchen itself is a testament to thoughtful design and modern convenience. Custom cabinetry, complete with soft-close doors and cabinets, designer white appliances and tile flooring that adds a touch of contemporary flair. The white subway tile and designer backsplash serve as an artistic backdrop. The hallway offers an ample amount of cabinets for all your storage needs. The primary bedroom is a tranquil retreat, boasting spaciousness and serenity and a generous walk-in closet. The en-suite bathroom has been thoughtfully updated with modern fixtures. Two spacious guest bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for friends and family and the guest bathroom has undergone an impressive transformation, featuring a new shower/tub combination, a dual sink vanity and shiplap paneling. As if the interior wasn't enchanting enough, the backyard elevates the home to another level of beauty. The large patio with brick flooring awaits outdoor gatherings and lazy afternoons. The true gem of the backyard, however, is the expansive garden area. Here, fruit trees and an avocado tree thrive alongside bountiful vegetable raised garden beds and Zinnia flowers. Completing this enchanting residence is a detached garage, accessible via a discreet alleyway. Other features include a newer HVAC, 50 year old roof (5 yrs old), whole house water filter, copper plumbing, inline irrigation, tankless water heater, dual pane windows and more! From the meticulous landscaping to the carefully curated interior, every facet of this house reflects the owner's love for gardening and design, resulting in a truly exceptional home.
